FFW Take out journal summaries – Act III, scene 1, 2, 3, 4 In your notebook, answer the following question: If you know what a direct object is, then what is an indirect object? In your notebooks, copy down the following sentences and identify the direct object in each: 1.He called her yesterday. 2.She went to the store on Friday. 3.I do not understand the problem on the board. 4.Friar Lawrence came up with a solution to help solve Romeo’s problem.

Indirect Objects The indirect object is the secondary receiver of the action in a sentence. For example: Justin gave his girlfriend a diamond ring. Subject: Justin Verb: gave Direct Object: ring

Indirect Objects Justin gave his girlfriend a diamond ring. To whom did Justin give a diamond ring? He gave a diamond ring to his girlfriend. “ Girlfriend ” is the indirect object of this sentence. “ Girlfriend ” cannot be the direct object of the sentence because Justin did not give his girlfriend. He gave a diamond ring.

In the second sentence, “ them ” is no longer an indirect object because it is part of a prepositional phrase. Prepositional phrases are never direct or indirect objects.
